and reception of voice, data, and other types of communications
in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth
in this Agreement.

2.1.2

All service is subject to the
availability of necessary
and suitable facilities and to the provisions of this Agreement.
The Company or its designee may act as the Customer's agent
for ordering access connection facilities provided by other
carriers or entities, when authorized by the Customer, to allow
connection of a Customer's location to a service provided by
the Company. The Customer shall be responsible for all charges
due for such service arrangement.

2.1.3

The Company's services are provided on a
monthly basis unless otherwise provided, and are
available twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week.

2.1.4

For additional cost, and subject to

identify the users or user groups on an account. The numerical composition of the codes shall
be set by the Company to assure compatibility with the Company's accounting and billing
systems and to avoid the duplication of codes.

2.1.5

The Company shall not be responsible
for any installation, operation or maintenance of any
Customer provided communications equipment. Where such equipment is connected to service
furnished pursuant to this Agreement, the responsibility of the Company shall be limited to the
furnishing of services under this Agreement and to the maintenance and operation of such
services in the proper manner.

2.1.6

Customer provided station equipment
at the Customer's premises for use in connection with this
service shall be so constructed, maintained and operated as to work satisfactorily with the

of facilities and the provisions of this Agreement.

the laws of the United States, including rules, regulations and policies of the Commission.

will not function in the event of a power failure or improper network connection and/or function.

transmission of communications by the Customer
consistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week.

destruction of the premises of the Customer or any other property, whether owned by the
Customer or by others, caused or claimed to have been caused, directly or indirectly, by the
installation, operation, failure to operate, maintenance, removal, presence, condition, location or
use of equipment or wiring provided by Company where such installation, operation, failure to

negligence.

which to evaluate the Customer's claim or demands. If notice of a dispute concerning the
